A fifty-mile evacuation zone would require all of Puerto Rico to be evacuated if something like Fukushima were ever to happen over here. Good thing we don't have nuclear power here in PR.

Among the many obvious lessons of the ongoing nuclear power disaster at the Fukushima nuclear complex in Japan is that the 10-mile evacuation zone the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has insisted upon for nuclear plants here is a product of the pro-nuclear NRC’s wishful thinking.
